Aaaaargh! I hate "Jerusalem" even more than the national anthem! Let's face it, the first verse is really nothing more than a set of questions to which the answer is always "no", while the second is just militaristically stupid twaddle. In short, I really, really hate "Jerusalem" and I won't even sing that if I can help it.
